PREFACE. 


THE  preceding  title-page  indicates  the  nature  of  the  present  work  and  the 
design  of  its  author.  Except  so  far  as  is  necessary  for  etymological  purposes, 
words  occurring  in  writers  ordinarily  read  by  less  advanced  students  of  the 
I^itin  language  are,  for  the  most  part,  alone  explained ;  and  in  their  treat- 
ment the  principles  upon  which  the  larger  Dictionary  of  White  and  Kiddle  is 
hased  are  uniformly  followed,  as  fully  as  circumstances  allow  or  require.  The 
course  which  has  been  pursued  may  be  thus  described.  Immediately  utter  the 
assigned  origin  of  each  word,  the  literal  interpretation  is  given  between 
parentheses;  and  that  English  rendering  of  which  such  interpretation  holds 
good  in  a  pre-eminent  degree  is  placed  first  in  order,  and  regarded  as  the 
proper  or  primary  meaning.  When  the  source  of  a  word  is  not  discoverable, 
the  fact  is  stated ;  and  the  ordinary  interpretation  is  accepted  and  assigned 
the  first  place.  When  figurative  and  metonymical  powers  exist,  either 
separately  or  conjointly,  these  are  given,  when  they  fall  within  the  necessarily 
restricted  scope  of  the  work.  A  brief  reference  is  usually  made  to  some 
author;  invariably  so,  indeed,  when  a  quotation  is  deemed  desirable  or 
needful.  Peculiar  or  unusual  grammatical  constructions  are  noticed.  In  the 
case  of  adjectives  and  adverbs,  the  comparative  and  superlative  degrees  are 
mentioned  when  they  are  known  to  exist ;  and  whenever  either  one  or  the 
other  or  both  are  omitted,  it  is  to  be  considered  that  no  authority  is  to  be 
found  for  their  use.  Proper  names  are  included  in  the  body  of  the  work, 
and  will  be  found  in  their  alphabetical  order ;  added  to  which  their  meaning 
is  stated,  whenever  their  origin  is  clearly  traceable  or  may  be  reasonably 
conjectured ;  such  meaning  being  printed  in  Koman  type  in  the  case  of 
Latinized  Greek  names,  and  in  Italic  type  in  the  case  of  pure  Latin  names. 
French  derivatives  from  such  Latin  words  as  are  comprised  in  this  Dictionary 
are,  moreover,  mentioned. 

In  one  respect,  however,  this  book  differs  from  the  parent  work,  and, 
indeed,  from  any  Dictionary  which  has  yet  appeared.  This  peculiarity  con- 
sists in  the  mode  of  printing  <each  leading  word  so  as  to  exhibit  its  process  of 
formation,  and  thus  show  the  reason  for  the  etymological  meanii^g  assigned  to

it.  The  plan  was  originally  devised  lor,  and  carried  out  in,  a  work  on  the 
structure  of  the  Latin  language,  entitled  "  Latin  Suffixes,"  which  was  written 
for  the  special  instruction  of  the  boys  of  a  particular  department  in  a  particular 
school.  The  success  which  attended  its  use  has  suggested  the  application  of 
its  principles  in  the  present  instance.  Since,  however,  this  mode  of  printing 
is  a  novelty  in  Lexicographical  works,  some  explanation  of  the  plan  itself  is 
required. 

SIMPLE  WORDS  consist,  in  part,  of  a  base,  which  may  be  either  a  root,  or  a 
theme — by  some  called  a  stem;  in  part,  of  either  a  suffix  alone  or  a  suffix 
preceded  by  a  connecting  vowel  or  by  a  consonant,  which  some  etymologists 
term  "  euphonic,"  others  "  epenthetic."  In  order,  as  before  stated,  to  show  the 
formation  of  the  word,  and  at  the  same  time  to  assist  in  indicating  the 
etymological  force  resulting  from  the  combination  of  the  base  and  suffix,  a 
hyphen  is  placed  between  them.  Thus,  in  am-or,  ama-far,  and  vir-tus,  the 
respective  bases  are  am,  ama,  and  vir ;  the  respective  suffixes  are  or,  tor,  and 
tus.  Again,  in  teg  umen,  mon-ttor,  and  mon-strum,  the  respective  bases  are 
teg  and  mon;  umen  and  itor  supply  instances  of  the  occurrence  of  a  connect- 
ing vowel ;  while  strum  shows  the  employment  of  the  euphonic  or  epenthetic 
consonant  between  the  suffix  and  base ;  the  connecting  vowels  being  respec- 
tively u  and  i ;  the  euphonic  or  eperthetic  consonant,  s ;  the  suffixes,  men 
tor,  and  trum.  In  some  few  casu,  a  seeming  prefix  is  employed :  see  the 
articles  a-pi-s,  a-vi-s. 

COMPOUND  WORDS  are  formed  sometimes  by  the  union  of  two  simple  words, 
jither  without  or  with  some  letter-change  or  contraction  ;  at  other  times  by 
the  combination  of  the  primary  elements  entering  into  the  formation  of  two 
(rarely  more)  simple  words,  either  with  or  without  a  connecting  vowel,  and 
generally  with,  though  occasionally  without,  a  suffix  ;  while,  further  still,  a 
euphonic  or  epenthetic  consonant  is  inserted  in  certain  instances. 

Of  the  former  of  these  two  classes  of  compound  words,  ab-soluo,  per-rumpo, 
con-scendo,  are  examples.  In  order  to  distinguish  the  component  parts,  a 
hyphen  is  inserted  between  them.  If  the  composition  involves  no  letter- 
change,  the  word  is  simply  printed  as  shown  in  ab-soluo,  per-rumpo.  But  if 
a  letter-change  occurs,  then  mention  is  made  of  the  fact,  while  the  same  mode 
of  printing  is  retained.  Thus,  that  con-scendo  is  a  compound  word,  appears 
from  the  employment  of  the  hyphen,  while  the  change  that  is  made  in  one  of 
its  members  is  mentioned  immediately  after  the  statement  of  its  mode  of 
flexion  and  of  its  conjugation,  in  the  following  way  ; — [for  con-seando] ; 
aon-scendo  being  in  fact  the  euphonised  form  of  con-scando  Examples 


PREFACE.  V 

of  the  formation  of  compound  words  from  two  simple  words,  through  contrac- 
tions, lire  found  in  ne-mo  from  ne-homot  and  in  n-olo  from  ne-volo. 

Of  the  other  claps  of  compound  words,  la>t-i-fic-o,  and  mont-f-cdl-a, 
exhibit  the  employment  of  a  connecting  vowel  and  the  addition  of  a  sufEz. 
Paer-ptr-us  and  con-saiigum-eus  are  formed  without  an  intervening  con- 
necting vowel,  while  they  each  receive  a  suffix.  In  tccd-i-fer  and  tub-i-cen? 
there  is  a  connecting  vowel,  but  no  suffix.  While,  as  will  be  presently 
shown,  equ-e-s  and  com-e-s  receive  a  euphonic  or  epenthetic  consonant,  though 
it  does  not  appear  in  their  nominative  cases.  Here,  too,  as  in  the  other 
class  of  compound  words,  hyphens  are  employed  to  separate  the  component 
parts.  In  that  portion  of  each  article  which  is  devoted  to  etymological 
information,  the  respective  roots  or  themes  of  the  simple  words  are  shown 
by  their  being  separated  by  a  hyphen  from  the  part  changed  in  flexion  ; 
the  connecting  vowel  or  euphonic  (otherwise  epenthetic)  consonant  is 
denoted  by  its  being  placed  between  parentheses  (  ) ;  while,  Further  still,  any 
letter-changes  that  may  occur  are  stated. 

By  reference  to  the  body  of  the  work  it  will  be  seen  that  Icet-i-fic-o  is  for 
la>t-i-fdc-o.  Here  Icet  is  the  theme  of  Icet-vs  ;  fac  is  the  root  offac-io ;  t,  as 
will  be  seen  from  its  mode  of  printing — viz.  (i), — is  a  connecting  vowel ; 
while  the  o  is  a  verbal  suffix.  So  also  in  the  case  of  mont-t-col-a,  it  will  be 
seen  that  mont  is  the  true  theme  of  mom — the  t  disappearing,  be  it  observed, 
in  the  nominative  before  the  following  consonant,  s ;  that  col  is  the  root  oi 
col-o ;  that  i  is  a  connecting  vowel ;  while  the  final  a  is  a  suffix.  Here  it 
should  be  stated,  that  where  the  true  theme  of  a  noun  is  not  discoverable  in 
the  nominative  case,  the  genitive  is  given,  as  there  it  always  appears :  e.  g. 
mons,  mont-is. 

On  the  other  hand,  in  puer-per-us,  puer  the  theme  of  puer,  puer-i,  is 
connected  immediately  with/>er,  which  is  altered  from  par,  the  root  of  par-io ; 
while  the  final  syllable  us  is  a  suffix.  In  con-sangufn-jfus,  con, — the  form 
assumed  in  certain  cases  by  cum  when  used  in  composition,  —  is  joined  im- 
mediately to  sanguin,  which  is  the  theme  of  sangitis,  the  n  being  thrown 
out  before  the  following  consonant  s ;  while  eus  is  a  suffix. 

Again.  Tad-i-fer  and  tub-i-cen  respectively  supply  instances  of  words 
having  a  connecting  vowel,  but  being  without  a  suffix.  Thus,  teed  is  the  theme 
of  tced-a ;  fer  is  the  root  of  fer-o;  i  is  a  connecting  vowel.  So,  tub  is  the 
theme  oftub-a;  cen  represents  can,  the  root  of  can-o ;  while  i  is  a  connecting 
vowel. 

It  has  also  been  mentioned  that  a  euphonic  or  epenthetic  consonant  i« 
occasionally  inserted.  The  articles  com-e-s  and  equ-e-s  will  show  thib. 
Com-e-s,  it  is  stated  in  tb*  work  itself,  is  put  for  com-i-(t}-s,  and  equ-e-s  for 

A3 


Vi  PREFACE. 

equ-i'^j-s.  In  each  instance  the  t  does  not  appear  in  the  nominative  case; 
but  it  does  appear  in  the  oblique  cases,  and  throughout  the  plural  number; 
e.g.  com-i-t-is,  equ-i-t-is,  etc.  To  indicate  the  nature  of  the  letter  /,  it.  ta 
printed,  as  shown  above,  between  parentheses ;  viz.  (t).  It  should  be  stated, 
however,  that  by  some  scholars  this  t  is  considered  to  be  a  suffix. 

To  pass  now  to  some  lew  other  points  which  require  mention. 

Words,  whether  simple  or  compound,  formed  in  the  way  above  described, 
are  often  the  sources  of  a  still  further  formation.  When  this  is  the  case,  that 
portion  of  them  which  is  not  subject  to  flexion  becomes  the  base  of  the 
new  word,  and  is  cot  divided  into  its  original  elements,  but  is  printed  con- 
tinuously. To  illustrate  this  by  reference  to  words  already  used  a.s  examples. 
From  mon-strum,  con-scendo,  are  obtained,  by  the  addition  of  suffixes,  monstr- 
teus,  cvnscen-sio  (for  conscend-sto) :  the  basea  being  monstr,  conscend,  which 
are  those  portions  of  their  respective  words  which  are  not  subject  to  flexion-, 
and  the  suffixes  being  osus,  sio. 

Words  obtained  directly  from  the  Greek  language,  and  which  are  in  fact 
merely  Latin  representatives  of  Greek  forms,  are  printed  without  any 
division  :  as,  machina  from  priyavr]  ;  Metnnon  from  Mc'/ji'wi'.  Words,  aLso,  of 
doubtful  origin  are  not  divided. 

When  a  consonant  is  inserted  in  the  present  tense  of  a  verb  in  order  to 
Strengthen  the  present  form,  such  consonant  is  inclosed,  in  the  leading  word, 
between  parentheses:  as,  ju(n)g-oy  ru(m)p-o;  the  true  roots  of  which  are 
respectively  jug  and  nip. 

When  words  are  formed  from  verbs  of  the  first  conjugation,  and  receive 
the  conjugational  letter  a,  such  a,  when  their  origin  is  stated,  is  exhibited 
between  parentheses ;  thus  ama-tor,  ara-trum,  are  paid  to  spring  from  am(a)-o, 
ar(a)-o.  But  when  the  a  is  not  employed,  the  ordinary  form  of  the  first 
person  of  the  present  tense  of  the  verb  is  given  ,  thus  aw-or,  ar-vus  are  repre- 
sented as  having  their  sources  in  am-o,  ar-o. 

When  a  word  has  for  its  base  the  uninflected  portion  of  a  substantive  of 
the  second  declension,  or  of  an  adjective  following  the  form  of  the  second 
declension,  and  such  base  ends  in  two,  or  more,  consonant?,  a  vowel  is  at  times 
inserted  before  the  last  of  them  ;  as  from  minister,  ministr-i,  is  formed  minister - 
turn,  not  ministrium  ;  from  tignum,  tign-i,  comes  tigil-lum  (for  tigin-lum},  not 
tign-lum',  and  from  integer,  integr-i,  is  obtained  integel-lus  (for  integer-Ins), 
not  integr-lus.  The  same  statement  also  holds  good  in  some  other  cases ;  as 
from  umbra,  umbr-ce  of  the  first  declension,  springs  umbel-la  (for  umtM>-la)9 
not  umbr-la. 

Some  suffixes  are  simple,  as  or  in  am-or  ;  others  are  compound  as  tus  in 


PR  K  FACE.  Vli 

vir-tus,  which  i^present*1  lut-s,  the  real  or  pure  suffix  being  tut,  and  s  the 
nominative  case-ending.  This,  however,  is  a  point  which  cannot  be  treated 
of  at  length  in  a  preface. 

When  a  suffix  is  preceded  by  a  connecting  vowel,  or  by  a  euphonic  or 
epenthetic  consonant,  no  hyphen  is  employed;  as  mon-itor,  not  mon-i-tor; 
mon-*tiiiin,  not  mon-s-trvm. 

As  the  suffix  always  forms  the  last  portion  of  a  word,  and  follows  the 
hyphen  in  simple  words  and  the  last  hyphen  in  compound  words,  it  has 
not  been  thought  necessary  to  repeat  in  any  instance  what  it  is,  inasmuch  as 
it  is  self-evident.  Where  no  suffix  is  used,  the  fact  will  appear  in  the  state- 
ment given  of  the  origin  of  the  word. 

Such  is  the  outline  of  the  plan  upon  which  the  leading  words  in  this  work 
are  printed ;  a  plan  which,  it  is  confidently  believed,  will  go  far  to  render  an 
acquaintance  with  the  mode  of  formation,  and  the  etymological  meaning,  of 
words  in  general,  comparatively  easy  even  to  persons  beginning  to  study  th« 
Latin  language.  Should  further  insight  into  these  matters  be,  desired,  it  may 
be  obtained  from  the  work  already  mentioned — "  Latin  Suffixes."  Much,  also, 
will  soon  be  procurable  from  the  forthcoming"  Public  Schools  Latin  Grammar," 
especially  with  regard  to  letter-changes,  and  the  construction  of  the  cases  of 
nouns  and  of  the  perfect  tenses  and  the  supines  of  verbs.  From  an  examination 
of  that  work,  which  has  been  courteously  conceded  to  the  author  of  this 
Dictionary,  in  common  with  certain  others  engaged  in  educational  pursuits,  he 
is  enabled  to  speak  of  the  effort  to  harmonize  grammatical  teaching  in  this 
country  as  being,  in  his  judgment,  most  skilfully  carried  out,  and  likely  to 
be  hailed  as  a  great  boon  by  all  who  can  appreciate  the  advantages  that 
cannot  but  accrue  from  the  general  adoption  of  one  standard  Grammar  for 
the  primary  instruction  of  youth. 

The  assistance  which  the  author  received  in  his  former  and  larger  Abridg- 
ment of  "  White  and  Riddle's  Dictionary "  from  the  Rev.  Ernest  Brette — 
Graduate  of  the  University  of  France,  Head  Master  of  the  French  School  at 
Christ's  I  lospital,  and  French  Examiner  in  the  University  of  London  and  for  the 
Civil  Service  of  India — has  been  extended  to  him  in  the  present  instance 
also;  that  gentleman  having  kindly  undertaken  to  test  the  accuracy  of  the 
printing  of  the  French  derivatives,  For  this  service  the  author  tenders  him 
his  very  sin  ex- re  thanks.

rejected  the  labial,  even  when  they 
were  separated  by  the  addition  of  an  s ; 
as  abspello,  absporto  pass  into  aspello,  j 
asporto ;  or  the  place  of  the  labial  is  j 
supplied  by  u,  as  in  aufero,  aufugio, 
for  ahfero,  abfugio.  The  Gr.  \£  was 
represented  by  bs;  as,  absis,  Absyrtus, 
absinthium,  and  obsonium  =  a^i<;,i'A^- 
vpros,  at/uV0iop,  6i|/<iWtoi<.  —  Also,  b 
before  s  and  t  was  changed  into  p,  as 
scribo,  scripsi,  scriptum;  nubo,  nupsi,  j 
nuptum,  etc.  Still  the  grammarians 
not  rarely  vary  in  these  words  between  ! 
bs  and  ps.—Of  the  liquids,  J  and  r  j 
Btaud  both  before  and  after  b,  but  m  \ 
(with  one  exception)  only  before  it, 
and  n  only  after  it ;  hence,  con  and  in 
before  b  always  become  com  and  im; 
just  as  inversely  b  before  n  is  sometimes 
changed  to  m,  as  Samnium  for  Sabini- 


um;  and  scamnum  for  scabinum, 
whence  the  dimin.  scabellum. — B  is  so 
readily  joined  with  u,  that  not  only 
acubus,  arcubus,  etc.,  were  written  for 
acibus, ambus,  etc.,  but  also  contubern- 
ium  was  formed  from  taberna,  and 
bubile  was  used  for  bovile,  as  also  in 
dubius  (=8016?,  duo)  a  b  was  inserted. 
— B  is  rejected  in  uro  for  buro,  from 
irvp,  while  it  is  retained  in  comburo 
and  bustum. — B  is  reduplicated  in  6/60, 
from  the  Gr.  TU'U>,  as  the  shortness  of 
the  first  syllable  in  the  preterite  bibi, 
compared  with  dtdi  and  steti  or  stiti, 
shows  ;  although  later  bibo  was  treat- 
ed as  a  primitive,  and  the  supine 


words  deserves  special  mention,  ;w 
duonus  for  bonus;  Bellona  for  Duell- 
ona  ;  bellum  for  duellum,  and  bis  from 
duis.

D,  d,  n.  indecl.  or  /.  The  fourth 
letter  of  the  Latin  alphabet :  I.  Cor- 
responding in  sound  and  place  to  the 
Greek  A,  but  called  simply  De:  having 
a  harder  pronunciation  when  closing 
a  syllable  or  when  followed  or  pre- 
ceded by  other  consonants :  whence 
the  frequent  and,  in  part,  very  old 
orthography  at  (prep.),  haul,  set, 
aput,  aliui,  etc.,  atnellavit,  affints, 
16-2  " 


itcirco,  etc.,  Alexantfr,  Castantra,  etc., 
for  ad,  haud,  sed,  etc.  II.  As  an  initial, 
the  letter  d,  in  pure  Latin  words,  suf- 
fers only  one  vowel  after  it :  the  single 
consonantal  compound  dr  is  found 
only  in  borrowed  words,  such  as 
drama,  Drusus,  Druidae,  etc.,  and  in 
the  two  onomatopces,  drenso  and 
drindio.  Accordingly,  the  d  of  the 
initial  dv,  from  du,  was  rejected,  and 


the  remaining  9  either  retained  un- 
altered, or  was  changed  into  &  (so  ill 
fcellum,  Ms,  6onus,  for  duellum,  duis, 
dttonus). — As  a  medial,  d,  before  most 
consonants,  undergoes  assimilation; 
assum,  iccirco,  quippiam,  quicquam,  for 
adsum,  idcirco,  quidpiam,  quidquam; 
and  in  contractions  like  cette  from 
cedUf.  —  D  before  s  was  suppressed 
altogether  in  grammatical  inflection- 


DANAE 


as  pes  from  ped-s  ;  lapis  from  lapid-s  ; 
frons  fromfrond-s  ;  rasi  from  rad-si  ; 
rwi  from  rid-ai  ;  /w$i  from  /wd-si  ; 
clausi  from  c/awd-si  (only  the  verb 
cedo  assimilated  d  in  cessi)  :  and  in 
composition,  when  another  consonant 
followed  after  the  s,  as  ascendo,  aspicio, 
asto,  astringo  ;  also,  in  agnatus,  agnitus, 
and  agnosco  the  d  yielded  to  the  nasal 
pronunciation  of  the  gn  ;  and  in  tentum 
to  the  concurrence  of  the  n  and  t,  be- 
cause a  combination  nit  would  be  con- 
trary to  the  laws  of  euphony,  accord- 
ing to  which  no  consonant  can  be 
doubled  after  another.  —  As  a  final,  d 
stood  only  in  ad,  and  in  the  instances 
cited  below  in  no.  IV.  III.  The  letter 
d  is  interchanged  :  A.  With  t:  mendax 
from  mentior  ;  quadraginta,  quadra, 
etc.,  from  quatuor.  —  B.  With  r:  ar 
and  ad;  apor  and  apud;  meridies  and 
medidies;  audio  and  auris.  —  C.  With 
I:  dacrima  and  lacrima,  dingua  and 
lingua;  and,  on  the  contrary,  olere  for 
odere.  —  D.  With  s  :  Claudius,  from 


the  Sabine  Clausus,  medius 
and,  on  the  contrary,  rosa  and  p66oi'. 
IV.  As  a  grammatical  afformative, 
d  was  used  :  A.  In  the  oldest  period  of 
the  language,  to  designate  the  Ablat. 
Sing,  and  the  adverbs  proceeding  from 
it.  For  the  origin  of  this  d  it  is  diffi- 
cult to  account.  —  B.  The  d  which 
arose  from  the  demonstrative  de  (in 
quamde,  analogous  to  the  c  from  ce, 
q.  v.)  was  appended  :  1.  To  the  Ace. 
sing,  of  personal  pronouns  ending  in 
a  vowel  ;  so  several  times  in  Plautus 
med  and  ted.  But  in  the  classic  age 
this  d  no  longer  appears.  —  2.  To  the 
neuter  pronouns  originally  ending  in 
a  vowel,  id  (Gr.  t),  quid,  quod  (Gr.  ri 
ort),istud,  illud  (from  is-te,is-le),  and 
alid,  later  aliud  (Gr.  aAAo).—  3.  In  the 
older  Latin  attached  to  the  particle  SE 
=sine.  And  perhaps  in  like  manner 
may  be  explained  the  forms  prod  and 
red  for  pro  and  re  in  the  compounds 
prodire,  prodesse,  prodigo  ;  redargue, 
redeo,  redintegro,  redhibeo,  etc.  ;  red- 
do;  and  with  epenthetic  I  in  the  ante- 
classic  forms  antidea,  antideo,  antidhac, 
for  antea,  anteeo,  and  antehac  ;  but 
postidea  for  postea  appears  to  have 
been  formed  simply  after  the  analogy 
of  antidea.  V.  As  an  abbreviation, 
D.  usually  stands  for  the  prsenomen 
Decimus;  also  Deus,  Divus,  Dominus, 
Decurio.  etc.  Before  dates  of  letters, 
D  signified  dabam,  and  also  dies  ; 
hence,  a.  d..  ante  diem  ;  in  offerings  to 
the  gods,  D.  D.,  dono  or  donum  dedit, 
D.  D.  D.  ,  dot,  dicat,  dedicat,  etc.  B^" 
The  designation  of  the  number  500 
by  D  does  not  properly  belong  to  this 
place  ;  because  this  is  not  the  letter  D 
,  (which  would  have  denoted  the  num- 
ber 10  ;  cf.  D.  for  the  name  Decimus), 
but  the  half  of  the  original  Tuscan 
numeral  ©  or  CIO  for  1000,  which  is 
like  the  letter  D  in  shape.

E 


1.  E,  e,  indecl.  n.  or  /. ;  the  fifth 
letter  of  the  Latin  alphabet.  I.  The 
second  of  the  vowel  series,  embracing 
both  the  e  and  the  ij  of  the  Greeks. 
II.  The  short  e  (e)  is,  in  Latin,  next 
to  I  the  least  emphatic  of  all  the 
vowels.  It  took  the  place,  A.  Of  a  : 
(especially  before  two  consonants, 
whereas  usually  d  passed  into  I  in  open 
syllables) :  refello,  con/emo,  for  ref  allo, 
confarcio.  — Sometimes  the  mode  of 
spoiling  fluctuates,  as  in  the  com- 
pounds of  spargo  :  aspergo  and  asparg- 
o;  conspergo  and  conspargo;  so  also, 
together  with  dispando  the  form  dis- 
penno  also  occurs.  —  This  transition 
likewise  appears  in  verbal  reduplic- 
ations :  ce-cidi,  ce-oini,  pe-pigi,  fr.  cado, 
cano, pa(n)go.  — B.  Of  i:  1.  In  the

has  Itis :  pedes,  peditis ;  eques,  equitis. 
—  4.  It  is  probable  that  the  abl.  6  of 
the  third  declension  proceeded  from  t 
(or  id.).  —  C.  Of  9  or  u  :  verto,  vertex,

auger  for  augur ;  and  even  for  long  u 
we  have  &  in  dejS.ro  and  pejero,  from 
jiiro.  m.  The  long  e  (e)  interchanges 
most  freq.  with  the  diphthongs  ae  and 
oe;  yet  it  sometimes  also  took  the 
piaoe  of  d,  as  in  anhelo,  from  halo, 
198 


and  in  belo  for  balo ;  and  In  words

asper,  corresp.  to  the  Latin  H-sound. 
II.  As  an  initial  and  medial,  H  may 
be  combined  with  any  vowel,  though, 
as  long  as  the  language  was  a  living 
one,  the  orthography  in  this  respect, 
was  unsettled;  thus  we  have  honus, 
honera  for  onus,  onera;  harundo  for 
iruiuio  ;  and,  arusnex  for  haruspex, 
crus  for  herus.  HI.  In  the  formation

JACTITO 


J,  J,  n.  faded,  or  /.  I.  The  tenth 
letter  of  the  Roman  alphabet,  a  con- 
sonant, originally  represented  by  the 
same  character  as  the  vowel  i.  Its 
consonantal  nature  is  most  clearly 
proved  by  the  fact  that,  with  a  pre- 
ceding consonant,  it  always  forms 
position.  II.  The  pronunciation  of  j 
was  Irke  that  of  English  y ;  only  where 
;  occurs  as  a  medial  between  two 
vowels,  it  is,  according  to  the  state- 
ment of  the  grammarians,  to  be  pro- 
\  nounced  double;  wherefore,  in  such 
f  cases  it  is  also  written  double  by  many, 
as  ajjo,  Majja,  ejjus,  pejjus,  etc.  HI. 
The  closest  relation  exists  between  j 
and  the  vowel  t,  and  hence,  in  the 
course  of  formation  and  inflection,  it 
was  very  often  changed  into  the  latter: 
Pompejus,  Pompei ;  Gajus,  Gai ;  ajo, 
uibam. — On  the  other  hand,  the  i  was 
often  hardened  by  the  poets  into  j,  in 
order  to  form  position  :  abjete,  abjet- 
ibus,  for  abiete,  abietibus. — J  is  re- 
lated to  g,  as  mag-is,  major  (= mag-ior) . 
IV.  J  is  sometimes  elided,  especially 
in  the  poets,  in  the  compounds  of  jacio 
before  an  t:  abicit,  adicit,  obicit,  etc., 
for  abjicit,  adjicit,  objicit,  etc.,  and  in 
synaeresis  with  a  preceding  vowel  : 
eicit,  reicit  (dissyll.),  for  ejicit,  rejicit.

K 


K,  k,  indecl.  n.  or  /.,  the  eleventh 
letter  of  the  Roman  alphabet,  used  in 
the  most  ancient  times  of  the  language 
as  a  separate  character  for  the  sound 
k,  while  o  was  used  for  the  sound  g. 
When,  in  course  of  time,  the  character 


c  came  to  be  used  also  for  the  t-sound, 
and,  after  the  introduction  of  the 
character  o,  was  used  for  it  alone,  the 
K  disappeared  almost  entirely  from 
the  Latin  orthography,  except  in  cer- 


tain abbreviations,  as  K.  for  Cae*>,& 
or  Kal.  for  Calendae. 

Kaeso,  v.  CJESO. 

Kalendae,  v.  Calendse. 

Kartiiago,  v.  Carthago. 


L,  1,  indecl.  or  /.:  the  twelfth  letter 
of  the  Latin  alphabet.  I.  In  power 
It  corresponds  with  the  Greek  A.  It  is 
a  liquid  or  semivowel ;  and  possesses 
a  threefold  force  according  to  its 
collocation.  When  it  follows  another 
I  its  sound  is  slight,  as  in  ille,  Metellus: 
when  it  ends  a  noun  or  syllable,  it  has 
a  full  sound,  as  in  sol,  sylva:  in  all 
other  cases  it  has  an  intermediate 
power,  as  in  lectus,  lecta,  lectum. 
II.  L  is  interchanged  :  A.  In  simple 
words:  1.  With  d;  v.  letter  D.  — 2. 
With  n ;  as  in  lympha  from  vv^j].  — 
3.  With  r  (so  most  comm.):  i  ilium 
from  Aeipiop ;  libellus  for  liberlus ; 
agellus  for  agerlus. — 4.  With  x;  as 
majcilla  for  malilla  from  mala;  vex- 
illum  for  velillum  from  velum. — B.  In 
compound  words :  1 .  With  d;  as  alligo 
for  adliijo;  allego  for  adlego. — 2.  With 
n;  as  colligo  for  conligo;  colloco  for 
con  loco.  in.  L  is  dropped  by  syncope 
in  vis  for  velis.  IV.  As  an  abbrevi- 
ation, L  denotes  most  frequently  the 
praenomen  Lucius;  it,  however,  also 
represents  latum,  libens.  libertus,  long- 
vm,  Lyciorum.  fi3f  The  numerical 
mark  L,  for  the  number  50,  is  not 
331 


properly  theletter  L,  but  a  sign  formed 
by  placing  a  horizontal  line  at  right 
angles  to  the  lower  part  of  the  per- 
pendicular line  by  which  the  number 
one  is  represented.

letter  of  the  Roman  alphabet.  I.  N 
is  a  liquid  and  semi-vowel.  It  had  its 
full,  pure  sound  only  in  an  open  syl- 
lable, as  in  nomen ;  in  the  middle  of  a 
word  it  was  weakened,  as  in  amnis, 
damnum.  Before  the  guttural  letters 
a  medial  n  receives  the  sound  of  the  y 
before  gutturals,  wherefore,  in  early 
times,  we  have  also  g  written  for  n: 
Aychises,  agceps,  aggulus,  aggens,  aggu- 
illa,  iggerunt,  for  Anchises,  etc.  II. 
Assimilation  takes  place  before  I,  m, 
and  r:  illabor,  immitto,  irrumpo,  for 
inlabor,  inmitfo,  inrumpo ; — before  the 
labials,  n  is  changed  into  m :  imberbis, 
imbutus,  impar,  impleo,  for  inberbis, 
inbutus,  inpar,  inpleo.  m.  The  fre- 
quent insertion  and  omission  of  n  be- 
fore *  proceed  from  dialectical  differ- 
ences: Afcgalesia  and  Megalensia;frons 
and  frus;  quotient,  Miens,  as  well  as 
quoties,  toties,  etc.  Less  frequently  this 
bakes  place  before  other  consonants, 
as  lanterna  and  laterna;  ligula  and 
lingula. — The  double  forms  alioquin 
and  alioqiti,  ceteroquin  and  ceteroqui, 
eeem  to  rest  on  purely  phoneticgrounds.

S 


8, 8,  indecl.  n.  or/.  I.  The  nineteenth 
letter  of  the  Latin  alphabet,  corre- 
sponding in  form  to  the  old  Greek  S 
for  2.  n.  As  an  initial  and  medial  s 
has  a  hard  sound,  and  is  therefore 
joined  only  with  the  tenues  (c,p,  t). — 
As  a  medial,  also  written  double  after 
long  vowels :  caussa,  cassus,  divissiones 
(so  wrote,  for  instance,  Cicero  and 
Virgil,  ace.  to  Quint.),  in.  As  a  final, 
•»  has  a  softer  sound,  and  therefore 
not  only  admitted  the  medial  6  before 
it  (plebs,  urbt,  abs;  Arabs,  chalybs, 
etc.),  but  often  entirely  disappeared. 
So  in  the  ante-class,  poets  down  to 
the  early  years  of  Cicero  (and  also  in 
his  own  poem,  entitled  Aratus,  written 
in  his  youth),  before  words  beginning 
with  a  consonant,  to  avoid  position  : 
Ratu'  Romulus, /*ufoiV  Nobilior,  gravf 
Terra,  est  satC  bella,  Ilyperiom'  curs- 
urn,  Virgine*  nam  sibi,  etc.;  less  freq. 
before  worde  beginning  with  a  vowel, 
in  which  case,  to  avoid  hiatus,  the

argenteis  for  vasis  argenteus. — Final  s 
Is  also  elided  (and  the  preceding  vowel 
either  dropped  with  it  or  weakened) 
in  the  forms  sat  from  satit ;  mage 
from  magit;  in  the  neut.  forms  of 
adjectives  of  the  3d  declension,  acre, 
agre*te,  facile;  in  the  collateral  forms 
of  the  2d  Pers.  Sing.  Pass.,  fatere, 
fateare,  fatebare,  etc.  ;  in  the  Gen. 
Sing,  of  the  1st,  2d,  and  5th  declension, 
and  in  the  Norn.  Plur.  of  the  1st 
and  2d  declension  (aurai  for  aura-is, 
analog,  to  regis,  etc.).  — Lastly,  t  dis- 
appears in  the  forms,  abin\  scin', 
ftdfri,  tatin',  from  abisne,  scant,  vid- 
546 


esne,  satisne,  etc.  IV.  S  appears  as 
an  equivalent  for  the  aspirate  in  many 
words  of  Greek  origin ;  semi-,  serpo, 
sex,  super,  corresp.  to  TJ/U.I-,  Uprna,  e£, 
virep,  etc.  —  It  is  also  prefixed  to  some 
words  obtained  from  Greek  originals 
which  take  the  soft  breathing :  si  (old 
form  sei),  sero,  Segesta,  corresp.  to  ei, 
'EFO  (whence  «ip<u), 'Eyeerra.  — Less 
freq.  in  radical  words  beginning  with 
a  consonant :  sculpo  corresp.  to  y\v<)><a ; 
scribo,  to  ypd<t><o. — To  soften  the  term- 
ination, s  appears  in  abs,  =  ab,  and 
ex  corresp.  to  «. — Sometimes,  on  the 
contrary,  an  initial  a  appears  in 
Greek,  where  the  corresponding  Latin 
word  has  not  taken  the  s :  Lat.  f allo, 
Gr.  <r<£aAAw.  V.  S  is  interchanged : 
A.  Most  freq.  with  r;  see  that  letter, 
no.  II.  — B.  With  d:  Claudius,  from

corresp.  to  p^nVij ;  and,  on  the  con-

/  in  the  compounds  of  dis :  differo, 
dtjficilis,diff1uo,etc.;  v.  3.  dis. — On  the 
other  hand,  it  arises  by  assimilation 
from  d,  in  assum,  assumo,  cessi,  for 
adsum,  ad-sumo,  ced-si;  from  t  infassus, 
from  fateor;  from  6  in  jussi,  from 
jubeo ;  from  m  in  pressi,  from  premo ; 
from  r  in  gessi,  from  gero ;  and  dossu- 
arius,  from  dorsum.  Vn.  As  an 
abbreviation,  S  denotes  sacrum,  semis,

V 


V,  v,  n.  indecl.,  or/.,  the  twenty- 
second  letter  of  the  Latin  alphabet. 
The  character  is  derived  from  the 
Greek  Y.  Although  it  was  originally 
written  with  the  same  sign  as  the 
vowel  u,  it  was  by  the  ancients  them- 
selves considered  as  essentially  differ- 
ent from  it.  I.  In  sound  V  corresponds 
to  the  JEolic  digamma;  hence,  it  is 
called,  in  Quintilian,  .fiolica  litera.  By 
this  affinity  of  the  v  to  the  digamma 
is  explained  the  frequent  occurrence 
of  an  initial  or  medial  v  in  Latin 
words  whose  Greek  equivalents  have 
an  initial  or  medial  vowel ;  cf.,  ver, 
fa ;  vis,  I?  ;  levis,  Aelos.  H.  V  has 
the  closest  affinity  to  the  vowel  u,  and 
hence,  in  the  course  of  composition 
and  inflection,  it  often  passed  into  the 
latter:  solvo,  solutum,caveo,cautum, 
etc.  m.  V  as  a  medial  between  two 
vowels  was  very  frequently  elided,  and 
the  word  underwent  a  greater  or  less 
contraction:  amavisti.amasti;  novisti, 
nosti ;  si  vis,  sis.  Kg"  The  designa- 
tion of  the  number  five  by  the  letter 
V  does  not  strictly  belong  here,  it 
being  rather  a  representation  of  the

ZODIACUS 


X,  x,  «.  indccl.  or  /.  The  twenty- 
third  letter  of  the  Latin  alphabet.  I. 
The  character  most  probably  origin- 
ated from  the  Greek  B.  II.  The  sound 
of  X  was  like  that  of  the  Greek  £,  i.  e. 
ks,  although  etymologioally  it  repre- 
Hented  not  only  cs  (as  in  lux,  from 
luc-8,  and  dixi,  from  die-si),  but  also 
gs  (as  in  lex,  from  leg-s ;  rexi,  from 
reg-si),  h*  (as  in  traxi,  from  trah-si ; 
vexi,  from  veh-si),  and  chs  (as  in  the 
word  onyx,  from  onych-s,  borrowed 
from  the  Greek).  Less  frequently  x 
has  arisen  from  the  combinations  pi 
and  Is :  proximus  for  prop-si m us  (from 
propc),nixua  for  nit-sus(from  nitor), 
the  latter  being  used  aloug  with  the 
collateral  fora,  nisus,  aa  also  connivi 
with  <xmnixi,and  mistus  (from  misceo) 


!  with  mlxtus.  An  exchange  of  th« 
sounds  ss,  or  t  and  x,  took  place  in 
axis  also  assis,  laxus  also  lassus. 

Xantho,  us,  /.  =  Hai^w  (Golden 
or  Golden-haired  One).  Xantho;  a 
sea-nyniph,  daughter  of  Nereus  and 
Doris. 

Xanthus,  i,  m.,  Earto*  (Gold-

—  2.  A  river  in  Lyna,  flowing  past  a

Y,y,  n.indfd.  or  /.:  A  Greek  letter 
(the  twenty -fourth  of  the  Latin  Alpha- 
bet), which  was  introduced  only  at  a 
late  period  into  the  Latin  orthography 
for  words  borrowed  from  the  Gr.: — 
the  place  of  the  Gr.  Y  being  pre- 
viously filled  by  U.  Thus,  according 
to  the  express  testimony  of  Cicero, 
Enniua  always  wrote  Burrus  for 


Pyrrhus,  and  Brnges  for  Phryges ; 
and  so  the  borrowed  words  belonging 
to  the  oldest  period  of  the  formation 
of  the  language  have  either  constantly 
preserved  u  for  the  Greek  v,  as  cubus 
from  (cv'/3o?,  mus  from  nv<;,  etc.',  or 
this  u  has  afterwards  changed  into  t, 
as  lacrima,  formerly  lacruma,  from 
«-  Sometimes,  also,  o  took  the 


place  of  toe  v,  M  sorox  from  vpof, 
folium  from  <»i/AAov ,  and,  shortening 
a  long  vowel,  ancora  from  ay* vpa,  lik« 
the  preceding  lacrTma  from  {cixpu/aa. 
In  Cicero's  time  y  seems  to  have  been 
already  in  use ;  but  its  application 
was  restricted  to  foreign  words,  and 
hence  the  spellings  Sylla,  Tybris, 
pyrum,  satyr*,  etc.,  are  to  be  rejected. 


Z,  z,  n.  iiirfecl.  or  /.,  the  twenty- 
fifth  letter  of  the  Latin  Alphabet,  like 
y,  a  letter  also  borrowed  from  the 
Greek,  was  used  only  in  foreign  words. 
It  corresponded  in  sound  partly  to  the 
Greek  £,  Latin  ds,  and  partly  to  the 
English  t. 

Zacynthns  (-os),  i,/.,  Zattvi/Qot;. 
Zacynthus  or  Kacynthos;  an  island  in
